What did you have for dinner last night?

Chilenos in Norman is the shit. Chp and I go to one of the locations in OKC often. That's our spot!

I've eaten there twice. Got rugged sick both times. The last time I was there there was a guy drinking a large schooner of Bud and it had several raw oysters floating in it. It looked like something out of Temple of Doom.

Back on topic, I made tacos. Chicken, poblanos, jalapeños, garlic and topped with avocado. Needed salsa, but amazing nonetheless.

in VN, it's called lau (hot pot), many different variations to this dish. it's normally served as a soup on a burner where you boil the soup base and add fresh ingrediants (usually seafood)and serve with vermicelli like noodles. it can be quite ****ey (thai versions) but always delicious

Maria dragged me to a potluck for all the sunday school instructors at her church. And she asked me to fix the dish we were taking -- the roasted root vegetables I fixed for Christmas.

Reluctantly, i agreed to do it.

I tweaked the execution, deciding to roast the carrots 10 minutes before adding the rest: brussel sprouts, red onion, yams, and sweet potatoes (w/olive oil, salt, pepper). Came out great.

But it was even better than I expected. When all the hot dishes were set on the tables, they were all high carb and meat: spaghetti w/meat sauce, lasagne, mac & cheese, meat stuffed ravioli, sausage & beans, fried chicken, hot chicken wings, panko breaded chicken, and roast beef.
